Product Overview
Zialid contains Linezolid 600mg, a next-generation antibiotic used for treating serious bacterial infections that do not respond to common antibiotics. Linezolid belongs to the oxazolidinone class and is known for its excellent oral bioavailability, meaning the tablet works almost as effectively as the injectable form.
It is especially recommended in hospital-care and chronic-care settings where resistant pathogens like MRSA (Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus) and VRE (Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci) are suspected.
For PCD partners and distributors, Linezolid-based products remain in high demand due to increasing antibiotic resistance across India
Indications for Linezolid 600mg
Complicated & uncomplicated skin and soft tissue infections
Community-acquired pneumonia
Hospital-acquired pneumonia
MRSA infections (CDC & NCBI)
VRE infections (Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus)
Infections unresponsive to other antibiotics
Bone & joint infections (as per specialist guidance)
Mechanism of Action
Linezolid acts by:
Inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis
Binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit
Preventing formation of the initiation complex
Causing bacteriostatic or bactericidal action depending on the organism
This unique mechanism gives Linezolid 600mg strong activity against resistant gram-positive bacteria.
